Start the car up and there should be a fitting that has a smaller bolt and a larger one. Put the car on a ramp to get that area higher than the rest of thecar. Then open the top screw and there should be a litttle hole where coolant will come out. Bleed it a little then if air comes out you';ll see it. Its on the pipe going to the heater (black pipe) on top of engine.
